The North East England Chamber of Commerce has appointed a new senior executive team.
Jennifer Rycroft has been promoted to executive director membership and Rhiannon Bearne is now executive director policy and representation. Meanwhile, Aneela Ali joins the Chamber team as executive director finance and corporate services. And all three have become board members.
Chief executive John McCabe said: "The North East economy is going through a period of change with challenges to overcome and enormous potential to seize. The Chamber’s new structure, headed by this strong and talented Executive Team, ensures we are ready to play our full part in creating a stronger, fairer North East. Jen and Rhiannon contribute so much to our work and have consistently proven themselves as outstanding leaders in the business.
